-LRB- CNN -RRB- -- The man who led Germany to a World Cup win both as a player and a coach admits he has lost faith in FIFA due to the way the voting process for the 2018 and 2022 tournaments was handled .

Franz Beckenbauer , a member of FIFA 's executive committee , criticized football 's governing body after the amount of votes each bidder received was made public .

Beckenbauer was one of the 22 FIFA members who voted in the process and claims he was assured that the details would remain private .

Yet soon after it was announced that Russia had won the right to host the 2018 competition , and Qatar had secured the 2022 version , media were reporting that two of the favorites , England and Australia , attracted just two votes and one vote respectively .

It led to an angry reaction from representatives of the England and Australia bid teams and Beckenbauer acknowledges his faith in FIFA has been shaken as a result .

`` I am disappointed with the way FIFA dealt with the result . The seven losing countries were treated disgracefully , particularly England and Australia , Beckenbauer told German newspaper Bild .

`` All of us ExCo members were told ahead of the ballot that neither we nor the public would ever know the exact number of votes for each country . After each round of voting we were told only which country had been ruled out .

`` Then , a few hours later , I was hearing from journalists what the exact voting had been . It 's certainly affected my confidence in FIFA . ''

England were particularly vociferous in their criticism of FIFA and claimed several committee members promised them votes that did n't materialize .

Ron Walker , a member of the Australian Football Federation , claimed the voting process had been `` contaminated '' in the year leading up to the announcement on December 2 .

Beckenbauer was instrumental in taking the World Cup to Germany in 2006 having won the tournament as a player in 1974 and as a coach in 1990 .

He announced in November that he will step down from his current role with FIFA in March in order to spend more time with his family .
